Brilliant!

I have just finished the 7 day programme and am amazed at how my appetite has reduced. I have lost my anxiety around eating 'bad' foods, although I feel more and more drawn to wanting to eat healthier foods without any effort. If I'm hungry, I eat what I want without worrying, and have very quickly become aware of when I am feeling full. I'm also more in tune with when my hunger is emotional and not true hunger. I haven't weighed myself, and I won't. I'm going to judge my weight loss by how my clothes fit because weighing myself constantly increases my anxiety. My clothes already feel looser and I have so much more energy. The techniques are really effective and the mind programming really does send you into a very deep, relaxed state. I have purchased Paul's new book for reducing anxiety, and having seen the results of this programme, I'm very hopeful!

Relistening is a must

What made the experience of listening to I Can Make You Thin the most enjoyable?

It all made sense.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Paul's voice is calm and reassuring

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Felt relaxed and happy after finishing.

Any additional comments?

Works wonders, just need to keep relistening

Worth it despite the messiness

This audio book is a mess, I'll be honest. The chapters are all mixed up, and some of the parts that are promised in the accompanying pdf are not in the audio book. It feels a bit like someone had the CDs and copied them to upload as an audio book, but they didn't do all the CDs and didn't pay attention to the order of the tracks. Chapter 3 cuts off part way, but the same full track is in Chapter 6. Chapter 8 cuts off right at the end, about a second or two early. So it has taken a lot of effort for me, someone who really cares about organisation, to look past the chaos of this audio book.

That being said, I'm still giving this 5 stars and I highly recommend it! It is worth powering through the messiness of the order of the tracks and missing sections. I haven't lost weight yet, after a few days of listening, but I have noticed a drastic, positive change in my appetite, portion sizes, attitude to weight and scales, obsession with "dieting," motivation to exercise, and my response to my full signal.

I would suggest using the Audible "timer" function to set it to play only to the end of the chapter when you are doing the meditations, in case you fall asleep.

This is my best attempt at organising the chapters:

Chapter 1 - Introduction to the book
Chapter 2 - Meditation: Change eating patterns, lose weight, exercise
Chapter 3 - Cuts off - full version in Chapter 6
Chapter 4 - Meditation: Weight Loss
Chapter 5 - Emotional Eating information
Chapter 6 - Meditation: Emotional Eating
Chapter 7 - Metabolism information
Chapter 8 - Meditation: Motivation (cuts off 1 or 2 seconds early)
Chapter 9 - Self Sabotage information
Chapter 10 - Meditation: Change eating patterns, lose weight, exercise
Chapter 11 - Craving Buster information
Chapter 12 - Craving Buster techniques
Chapter 13 - Meditation: Confidence
Chapter 14 - Listen While You Eat information
Chapter 15 - Listen While You Eat
Chapter 16 - Meditation: Overnight Success

Brilliant

This book has been excellent in so many ways....a few weeks in and I have lost 10lbs in weight and 5" off my waist. I find the hypnosis sessions incredibly relaxing and help not just with weight loss but to destress and feel more confident in every situation. My husband listens to some of the hypnosis sessions purely to reduce anxiety a definite 10 out fo 10!

It actually works!

I tried this first at university and lost a stone and a half but then when I'd lost the weight I figured I'd just stop and obviously things went wrong from there. It is the only way of losing weight that doesn't make you feel bad, guilty and like a failure so I thought I'd try it again after years of dieting. Once again it has won me over. It is such a positive way to address issues and I would recommend everyone try it.

Works but you have to keep at it

I bought this in paperback when the book first came out. I then purchased it as an App and lost well over a stone. I put back on half of that. Why? Because I stopped following the four golden rules and listening to the Trance Audio. This is so simple and it does work but you have to be consistent. I have knocked off a star from "overall" and "performance" because, as another listener commented, there is a slight background echo of Paul's voice throughout. All in all a good listen.
